What is it you do for a living? (Parenting, volunteering, CEO of social service organization, etc.)
I am a registered nurse, and I graduate as a psychiatric nurse practitioner in December of 2019.
What organization(s) do you volunteer or work for?
Nizhoni, DLH Consulting & Psychiatric Services and I volunteer at EmpowerHER
What is your interest in PACEs and resilience science?
I have always wondered how I can become involved as a speaker regarding ACEs and resilience. My father died unexpectedly of a heart attack when I was 12, my mother took her own life when I was 16 by hanging and I was the one to find her and my older brother died from substance use when I was 20. I would like to share my childhood trauma with the youth and communities to give them an example of perseverance and resilience and show that success and thriving is always possible.
If you're part of a community-based PACEs initiative, which one?
N/A
